Obsessive

Fat is repulsive, enlightened repeatedly

Brainwashed from birth

Taunted and ridiculed

Flesh on our bones

So abnormal, so unnatural

Hide the troops, they are coming

With their thin stunning daughters

Skeletal, but so dazzling to the eye;

Specimens of splendor, so divine

Long blond hair, flawless skin

So emaciated, but beautiful

Hips jutting out, bones so transparent

So imperative to be thin was the order of the day

Banished in life

Isolated, sitting in our seclusion occur

Designated, by the sovereign of frailty

Ostracized, not to be seen.

Wounded, mortified

If my own flesh and blood from her throne deemed it so.

Fat farms, starvation, tortured unremittingly

Malnourished, who cares.

You’ll proceed into society

With pomp and splendor

The fat should not breathe

The same air as the thin, the holy

Words pulsating in my brain

Indoctrinated, reeducated

Thank you mother dear

For dispensing such valuable information

On a golden platter

Not blinded by this drivel, realizing the truth

Comprehending that starvation isn’t life.
